    how i can host this experience on Airbnb
    Walk Like a Bedouin
    An Authentic Journey from Wadi Araba to Petra
    Distance: ~80 km
    Time: 5 days
    Difficulty Level: Advanced
    Availability: September-June
    On this rich culturally immersive trek, guests will travel from the desert of Wadi Araba to the mountains of Petra while experiencing authentic Bedouin lifestyle and traditions and the breathtaking night skies of southern Jordan. Bedouin Footsteps will be responsible for logistics, transportation, meals, gear and other necessities; all you need to bring is yourself and a few essentials listed below. This trip accommodates up to 16 guests, groups larger than 16 may be split into several groups. Guests should coordinate with Bedouin Footsteps in advance in order to ensure that the excursion is appropriate for skills and interests.
    Day 1: Arrival at Wadi Araba. Arriving in the afternoon, the Bedouin Footsteps team will meet you and provide off road transportation to the campsite. Guests are encouraged (but not required) to wear the traditional Bedouin thobe and kuffiyeh on the first day. Guests will help to prepare an authentic meal and to set up the Bedouin goat hair tent. Subject to availability, dinner will be accompanied by local traditional music.
    Day 2: Wadi Araba to Feynan via camel. On the second day, guests will make the journey to Feynan either riding or walking alongside camels. Lunch will be prepared along the trail and dinner at the Feynan campsite.
    Day 3: Feynan to Shobak. Traveling into the mountains, guests will accompany a local shepherd and his goats for the first half of the day. After a traditional lunch, the goats will return to Feynan and guests will continue the journey to Shobak Mountains, camping in the mountains at either Um al Amad or Al Furon.
    Day 4: Shobak to Little Petra. On the last full day of the excursion, guests make the journey to Little Petra, experiencing the rugged natural beauty of the Jordan Rift Mountains. Arriving at Little Petra, guests will either camp in nature or stay with a local Bedouin homestay (subject to availability).
    Day 5: Petra. Finish the journey through Jordan's natural and cultural landscape with a visit to Petra or Little Petra. After this, Bedouin Footsteps can arrange car transportation to Amman, Wadi Araba, or another destination.

      Try to create new experiences that don't exist yet in your area, be sure to follow all the rules of Airbnb, for an example it can't be a transportation service or even just "a service", it needs to be an experience which means a lot of communication with your guests, something that creates good memories for the guests and that's what you could write also in the description.

      @@tribucafedelasierra3765 It really depends on the idea you have, remember that at first you need to get accepted by Airbnb, which means you need to follow all the rules and it really needs to be about the "experience", you need to leave emotions to people who are participating.

Let people to book until the last minute (or keep the availability for booking as flexible as possible). I hope you will find it helpful.

    I would suggest that anyone intended on using Airbnb to first visit the BBB, and read through some of the hundreds of comments left by users.

      I would also like to say that it took me two months to get a refund after they closed my account, took my money in two separate transactions, locked me out of my account so that I could not initiate the refund process. Told me in two separate calls over that two months that they couldn’t do anything to help me resolve the problem. It took me getting on Twitter and leaving my bad experience comments on over 60 Airbnb videos to get someone’s attention that could resolve my problem.
      It’s pretty bad when customer service is completely useless, and a person has to put them on blast on Twitter to get money back. I will never use Airbnb again, even if their policies change, and I will never recommend anyone else using it either. Anyone asking you to sign an arbitration agreement as part of the terms of service is just advertising that they are company to avoid.

      The payment will be sent from Airbnb 24 hours after you have finished the experience.

For me (receiving payments from Airbnb Ireland to my Italian account), it takes usually 1-2 days.
